World's biggest matchstick model
Quote:
A retired British oil rig worker has claimed the record for creating the world's biggest matchstick model - using four million pieces.
David Reynolds, 51, has spent 15 years creating the replica of a North Sea oil platform and invested £5,000 on glue and matchsticks.
The finished model weighs one tonne and is 12ft tall and 21ft long.
